  • libvlc android build with mpeg 4 encoder and h264

    6 juin 2013, par jacob

    I am building libvlc for Android and I enabled sout (--enable-sout) but when I try to add sout transcode option, I get this error:

    cannot find encoder MPEG-4 Video
*** Your Libav/FFmpeg installation is crippled. ***
*** Please check with your Libav/FFmpeg packager. ***
*** This is NOT a VLC media player issue. ***
Streaming / Transcoding failed
It seems your Libav/FFmpeg (libavcodec) installation lacks the following encoder:
MPEG-4 Video.

    How can I add mpeg4 encoder support ?

    Another option is to add a h264 encoder but I don't know how to add that either.

  • Problems with frame rate on video conversion using ffmpeg with libx264 [migrated]

    29 mai 2013, par Lars Schroeter

    I have problems with transcoding some videos. I ran the most simple ffmpeg command and it takes very long time and the output file is about 10 times bigger. If I provide the frame rate parameter -r it works well (small file, fast transcoding). What is the problem and how can I solve it? I don't want to set a fixed frame rate because I guess it's better to leave it the same as source, isn't it?.

    Maybe the problem is something else, because I found many examples in web where the -r option isn't used. Also transcoding to a different format or with a different source works well without -r option (I tried with ffmpeg 0.7.15 and also 1.2.1). The videos are provided by the users of my website and automatically converted to be suitable for the web. So I need the most general command for automatic conversion.

    In the following ffmpeg output you will find this two suspicious messages:

    • Frame rate very high for a muxer not effciciently supporting it. Please consider specifiying a lower framerate, a different muxer or -vsync 2
    • MB rate (36000000) > level limit (983040)

    The ffmpeg command and output (without -r option):

  • Where to find ffserver static for linux

    I need just to download ffserver static file for using in linux(ubuntu 12.04 x64), with libx264 library. I don't want to challenge compilation task on Linux and have just a portable static file. I have spent long time searching for that. Can anybody guide me?

  • libx264.dll exposes function x264_encoder_open_130, shouldnt this be x264_encoder_open ?

    18 mai 2013, par Kim Kardashian

    I checked in my version of x264 dll file that the open function is named 'x264_encoder_open_130' and 130 happens to be the specific build number of x264 that i use. I build using minGW on windows and link to it, so my program would crash if i try to use a newer dll.. is there a way to get around this ?

    {
        n_samples = jpeg_read_scanlines(&decompressInfo, (JSAMPARRAY) &samples, 1);
        samples += n_samples * decompressInfo.image_width * decompressInfo.num_components;
        size += n_samples * decompressInfo.image_width * decompressInfo.num_components; 
    }
    jpeg_finish_decompress(&decompressInfo);
    QByteArray output(reserv, size);
    emit frameReady(output, decompressInfo.output_width, decompressInfo.output_height);
    jpeg_destroy_decompress(&decompressInfo);
    delete[] reserv;
}

    When I emit frameReady signal, I send data to Encoder, method, where I init Encedor looks like:

    bool EtherEncoder::initEncoder(unsigned int width, unsigned int height)
{
    x264_param_t param;
    x264_param_default_preset(&param, "veryfast", "zerolatency");
    param.i_width=width;
    param.i_height=height;
    param.i_frame_total=0;
    param.i_csp=X264_CSP_I420;
    param.i_timebase_num=1;
    param.i_timebase_den=96000;
    param.b_annexb=true;
    param.b_repeat_headers=false;
    x264_param_apply_fastfirstpass(&param);
    x264_param_apply_profile(&param, "baseline");
    _context=x264_encoder_open(&param);
    if(!_context)
        return false;
    int nal_count;
    x264_nal_t *nals;
    if(x264_encoder_headers(_context, &nals, &nal_count)<0) 
    {
        x264_encoder_close(_context);
        _context=0;
        return false;   
    }
    _extradata=QByteArray();
    _width=width;
    _height=height;
    if(nal_count>0) 
    {
        _extradata=QByteArray(
            (const char *)nals[0].p_payload,
            nals[nal_count-1].p_payload+nals[nal_count-1].i_payload-nals[0].p_payload); 
    }
    return true;
}

    And encoding method:

    void EtherEncoder::onFrameReady(QByteArray data, int width, int height)
{
    while(data.size()>0)    
    {
        if(!_context && initEncoder(width, height))
        {
            _timestampDelta=realTimestamp();
        }
        if(_context)
        {
            x264_picture_t pic;
            x264_picture_init(&pic);
            pic.i_type=X264_TYPE_AUTO;
            pic.i_pts=_timestampDelta*96000;
            pic.img.i_csp=X264_CSP_I420;
            pic.img.i_plane=3;
            int planeSize = width*height;
            uint8_t *p = (uint8_t*)data.data();
            pic.img.plane[0]=p;
            p+=planeSize;
            pic.img.plane[1]=p;
            p+=planeSize/4;
            pic.img.plane[2]=p;
            pic.img.i_stride[0]=width;
            pic.img.i_stride[1]=width/2;
            pic.img.i_stride[2]=width/2;
            if(_forceKeyFrame)
            {
                pic.i_type=X264_TYPE_I;
                _forceKeyFrame=false;
            }
            int nal_count;
            x264_nal_t *nals;
            int rc=x264_encoder_encode(_context, &nals, &nal_count, &pic, &pic);
            if(rc>0)
            {
                _mutex.lock();
                _packets.push_back(
                    Packet(
                        QByteArray(
                            (const char *)nals[0].p_payload,         nals[nal_count-    1].p_payload+nals[nal_count-1].i_payload-nals[0].p_payload),
                        _timestampDelta/96.0,
                        _timestampDelta/96.0,
                        pic.b_keyframe));
                _timestampDelta+=40;
                data.clear();
                _mutex.unlock();
                emit onPacketReady();
            }
        }   
    }
}

    Decoding and encoding proceeds without errors, at the end I get valid video stream, but, it seems that in one of this steps I set Invalid data for decoder/encoder. I get only 1/4 part of image (top-left, as I understood) and it has invalid color and come color stripes. Maybe I set invalid strides and planes when encode frame, or maybe my setting data for libjpeg decoder is incorrect.. Please ask questions about my code, I'll try to make some explanations for you. I explodes my brain.. Thank you.
